This is an excellent product for helping wounds heal quickly and well. It softens the scab that forms, preventing dead skin from sticking. It also hydrates the skin, allowing it to regenerate without leaving marks.

I was skeptical when I saw all of the raving reviews because that is usually a sure sign of something phony, but I gave this all purpose salve a try anyway, just out of curiosity. First, I tried it as a moisturizer and was not particularly impressed. I tried it next kind of like an antibiotic ointment on a patch of skin that had repeatedly been infected, though, and much to my surprise, it worked. Nothing else I tried had stopped the infection from recurring and my next step was going to be asking a doctor for oral antibiotics, but within 2 days of using this stuff, the infection was on the way out and eventually completely healed. (Not that I am advocating for people to not to go to the doctor when needed, just saying this stuff was incredible when all of the usual ointments had no effect!) I knew it was a keeper at that point, so I stuck it in my medicine cabinet and turned to it again when I got a nasty cold a couple months later. You know the kind of cold where your nose runs constantly until your nostrils are cracked and bleeding and even the softest of tissues feels like sandpaper? Yeah, that kind of cold. I used this salve on the end of my nose the first day it started, and unbelievably, my nose never developed that painful chafing at all. My nose ran for 3 days straight, but I applied the salve morning and night and it was fine. That truly sold me on this stuff because in the past I have tried everything from lotion to Vaseline to antibiotic ointment, and nothing stops or soothes the cracking and chafing. It is worth having a tub of this stuff on hand just for that!

This is worth 5☆ for performance, but for the price its not really a viable solution for most. Well you're looking at this wrong. Here's how to do this the right way. I dont think anyone should ever buy a 4oz jar of any salve -ever- (unless that salve is being used up in 6 months.)For emphasis:**ANY SALVE BREEDS BACTERIA. ** This is fact. Bacterias slow wound repair times. A lot. I ruined my entire first jar by not washing hands before touching and actually posted a bad review about. This is my update.Tip #1: keep it clean.Like religiously clean. I'm the type of person whom irons my sheets and will scrub the surface off things because I am usually overzealous about sanitation. So when I say clean, I mean wash your hands for full 30 seconds before or use a sanitary scooper sanitized between each use and occasionally wipe the surface layer out with an alcohol saturated clean swap. If it gets contaminated, scrape the top layer out again. This makes your shelf life longer so the bacteria doesn't literally negate the healing benefits.Tip #2: buy smaller jars. Yes you're paying a little more per ounce, but unless you're actively slathering it on large areas and will use the jar up 6 months or less go with smaller batches. You'll save more money this way because salves don't have a long shelf life, these are LIVE plants we're talking about here. So you're wasting more money by buying the larger jar if you're not using it all quickly. Ive had a rigorous last few years of bumps and scratches from the work I'm doing and use this about at least a few times per week. With that frequent usage in mind, now consider that my mini jar lasts me a full year and a half. Imagine how long it would take me to use a jar 4x that size. A six year old jar of salve is probably going to harm the repair process more than help, because the plant compounds are likely so broken down and the bacteria is likely so prevalent. Don't waste your money!! This is a good product, there's no reason to learn the hard way like i did for an entire year lol.Tip #3: be conscious of what you're doing!Ok most these reviews have not taken into account these are PLANTS we are talking about guys. Real living, eating, biological organisms that carry their own biome and specialty magical compounds that repair wounds. Indigenous communities have known these healing secrets for eons, but there is a finness to it. This is not a magic pill or a neosprin that wipes out anything good it touches, this is a gentler approach which doesn't have all those bad side effects so don't expect the same results either, this is a slower more kind method. Keep wounds clean, some wounds need more air or less air depending on where they're at, a dr can diagnose which is necessary. Be aware of what your body needs and maybe these plants will show you their secrets.So buy small batches, keep it sanitary, stay vigilantly aware of what the wound needs and see a dr.Plant-power blessings!

Love this shizz, don't need too much, spreads far! Has a nice herbal smell, but may be strong for some people. Has helped dry hands/cuticles and even felt good on burns I've got in the kitchen. Would recommend. I'd say it's worth the money, unless you need something for your whole legs, not just hands/smaller body parts.

I am always leery of the authenticity of “natural” products sold through large companies and the effectiveness of products that are touted as “all-purpose,” but I was pleasantly surprised by this! I have terrible reactions to bug bites and even had a cluster of them turn into a mild skin infection this summer. I also struggle with adult acne and scarring, and had a dermatitis flair-up around my nose recently that nothing was helping. This salve healed all of my skin conditions! It even cleared up some mild eczema on my 2-year-old’s arms. It really is a miracle product. It’s potent enough to heal serious skin issues, but gentle enough for sensitive skin and everyday use. I also really like its mild, earthy scent. I will always have this in my skincare routine and first aid kit!

If using for people, this stuff is great. Smells nice, not too greasy. However - I bought to use on my dog because she was getting seasonal allergy hotspots and I thought this would provide her some relief. I specifically looked through the Q&A to see if pet safety was addressed, and they said this product is safe to use on pets. While this product did not react poorly on her skin (it actually seemed to help her skin a bit), there was one night I put the salve on a spot where she was able to reach it and lick that area. When I woke up the next morning, half of her face was swollen to the point where her skin was tight and her lip was so thick it felt like a sharpei muzzle (I have a shih tzu). I gave her 1/4 children's benadryl and took her to the vet, bringing with any products I had used on her for the past two weeks (allergy supplements, hot spot spray, and this salve). The vet said this salve was the only product I brought with that he wouldn't advise using on a dog, particularly because of the grapeseed oil. I stopped using the salve on her, and she hasn't had any more issues like that since.
